My poetry of late

I don't seem to be writing very well lately. Ugh. I guess you can't force the forces. *sigh*

On a brighter note, my back is feeling a bit better, although I notice if I stop taking the ibuprofen, it gets all inflamed again and then the pain (which is always there but I'm able to work through it at times) increases again and it hurts to do anything. :-/ It's so sad to me, how I've taken the performance of simple tasks for granted forever, and how many of those use back muscles!!!

Everything else is going alright. Meme is finally *knocking HARD on wood* over the UTI that had her down. Steven is getting straight A's in school and is shining as the lead in the current school play, "Harvey". Amanda has a great attitude about trying out for basketball after not making the team last year. Jessica is coming home in a few days, on leave from the navy for almost a whole month. We're going to have Christmas early so she can celebrate the holiday with us. YAY!

And, I'm starting school next term.....ooooooh, I feel so nervous about being a student again! :-)
